Hi,
We frequent the Pier often and in particular at the weekend or a Friday lunchtime for a family lunch and like to support the lovely shops and some dining areas – those that are affordable. We appreciate weekends are a busy time for Parking BUT is it possible to install a sign letting us know when your carpark is FULL before we enter and join (often) a line of hot and irate car owners who are circling the car park looking for a park because they have been given a ticket so there must be a space somewhere! Countless times we have entered, circled and had to leave. Wasting precious time when we could have looked elsewhere. We know this is the feeling amongst many of our Cairns friends too….
Just a suggestion but we

Hello Ruth. Thank you for your message.
Our car park tends to get busy between noon and 1.30pm, as diners make their way to the Pier to enjoy lunch and a spot of shopping. Unfortunately our fully automated car-park does not support the application of a sign, and installing a digital counter is not feasible at this time. As a solution, the Cairns Regional Council provides ample parking spaces in the car-park directly opposite the Pier…only a hop, skip and a jump away. This may not be the solution you were hoping for, but we trust this will assist you getting out of a sticky situation in the future.
